Getting Started with Handshake

Handshake is the online career management system we provide to all undergraduates, graduate students and alumni free of charge. Handshake contains internship and job postings, information about on-campus interviews, event information, helpful resources and more. It is also how you can make appointments with advisers at Career Services.

All current undergraduate and graduate students have a pre-established account. To access your account, you must log in through the Central Authentication System (CAS) using your netID and password. For assistance, check out the Handshake Help Center.

To set up an account, alumni must register here. For instructions on how to set-up your alumni account once it has been activated, please visit this page.
